One Word To Describe The First Week Back At Redskins Park

This week players returned to Redskins Park to begin the first phase of offseason workouts.

For many, the week in April feels like the first week of school, a cliché that's used only because it best resembles the moment of returning to a building where players (students) spend the majority of their year. There's catching up with teammates (friends and classmates), reconnecting with coaches (teachers), chatting about the offseason and vacations (what happened over the summer), transitioning back into work mode (receiving your class schedule) and filling up a (new) locker (well, that's exactly the same).

But colloquialisms aside, the team is feeling… Well, instead of placing several adjectives based on general assumptions that would more or less be somewhat accurate to their emotional and physical status, I decided to ask as many players finishing up their week in the building as I could.

What's one word to describe the first week back at Redskins Park to begin the 2016 campaign?
